Ulitzer95 12,643 Posted October 17, 2021 Updated the list of names on IMDb who were born 1916–1926 and listed as living (see spoiler below). Lots of deaths since I posted this on 15th March: Beverly Cleary, Anne Douglas, Alfie Scopp, Orlando Drummond, Prince Philip, Dilip Kumar, Chandrashekhar, Gloria Henry, Bob Herron, Robert Fyfe, Morris Perry, Lenka Peterson, Mikis Theodorakis, Rosita Quintana, Betty Lynn, Jane Withers, André Maranne, Dorothy Steel, Desmond Davis, Kay Hawtrey, Ann Beaulieu and Gloria Warren. Marcy McGuire may have died. We still have no proof. Spoiler 1916: 1) Betty Rowland (IMDb) dancer and stripper – 100th birthday article from the Huff Post with photos... was this centenarian off our radar? They claim she's the last "star" from the Burlesque era 2) Carolina Barrett (IMDb) actress – died 13th October 2010 according to this. Other sources (mainly FB pages) say 2009. 3) Beverly Cleary (IMDb) writer – living UPDATE: now dead and changed on IMDb accordingly 1917: 1) Marsha Hunt (IMDb) Hollywood Golden era actress – living 2) Don Marion (IMDb) silent film actor – living UPDATE: now dead and changed on IMDb accordingly 3) Daphne Courtney (IMDb) actress – South African-born actress in B-movies in the 30s/40s. Married Scottish actor Hugh McDermott in 1936 in London (date found online and confirmed by Ancestry). Full name Daphne Ralda Courtenay-Hicks (surname also spelt Higgs in places) EDIT: Since @RoverAndOut did this research, this wikitree has appeared online. Born 28 Jun 1916 in Pretoria, so should be moved on IMDb. Also increases the likeliness she's dead! 4) Eleanor Hansen (IMDb) actress – American actress from Indiana, USA, roles in the 30s and early 40s only, mostly uncredited. Disappears after the 40s. UPDATE: Since @RoverAndOut did this research IMDB have added a death of May 27, 2013 (aged 95) in San Diego, California. 5) Eddie Infante (IMDb) actor and director – Filipino, long list of credits from the 1930s up to 1995 (when he'd have been nearly 80). Nothing since. Full name Jesus Eduardo Ferriol Infante. 6) Antonio Gradoli (IMDb) actor – Italian, credits from the 30s to the late 60s. Italian Wiki also lists him as alive. Also known as Anthony Gradwell - I think only in English dubs of European films? Another one who disappears without trace as far as I can see. 1918: 1) Dusty Anderson (IMDb) actress – limbo UPDATE: Death details were discovered and added to Wiki, now copied to IMDb – Sep 12, 2007 (aged 88) in Marbella, Spain 2) Michael Butler (IMDb) actor – just the one role, in Seven Sweethearts in 1942, real life brother of Hollywood legend Kathryn Grayson (1922–2010). Butler was born Harold Whittington Hedrick on 13 May 1918 in North Carolina. Died on Jan 1, 1976 (aged 57) and now updated. 3) Elisabeth Waldo (IMDb) violinist and composer – living, marked as having died in 2020 on geni but I've never found that site reliable. Surely it would have been reported?! 4) Shôichi Hirose (IMDb) actor – Japanese. Died post-1990 according to a book citied on his Wiki page. IMDb needs a year for an update though. 5) Mary McLeod (IMDb) actress – Canadian, born Mary Jessie McLeod, married Malcolm Bain. Died on Dec 5, 1994 (aged 76) in White Rock, British Columbia according to Ancestry. 6) Anthony La Penna (IMDb) voice artist – Italian-American, died Jan 27, 2011 (aged 92) according to a few places off of a Google search. UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 7) Zachary Charles (IMDb) actor – American, born in New York and a friend of Marlon Brando. Died in 2015 (aged 96/97) in Orange County, California, according to Ancestry. UPDATE: IMDb have now added a death year, but they've gone with 2014. 8) Jack Billings (IMDb) choreographer – Canadian, born Jack Oliver Billings 14 Apr 1918, listed as living on an Ancestry family tree so could be about still? 9) Eileen Bell (IMDb) actress – British-born, as Eileen Julia Bell (married name Tobin). And here we are, a fully written obit: died in Weymouth, Massachusetts on Jul 28, 2018 (aged 99)! Now how did IMDb not spot this one? UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 1919: 1) Nehemiah Persoff (IMDb) actor – living despite retiring from acting many decades ago because of health reasons! 2) Anne Douglas (IMDb) producer and actress – living; widow of Kirk Douglas, may know her better as Anne Buydens! UPDATE: Died Apr 29, 2021 (aged 102) and updated on IMDb 3) Silas Hathaway (IMDb) silent film actor – living UPDATE: No, scratch that. Turns out he died in 2017 with evidence now available online. Updated on IMDb at last! 4) Walter Bernstein (IMDb) screenwriter – living UPDATE: Died Jan 23, 2021 (aged 101) and updated on IMDB 5) Caren Marsh (IMDb) actress and dancer – living, stand-in for Judy Garland on the Wizard of Oz, also known as Caren Marsh Doll 6) Alfie Scopp (IMDb) actor – living, voiced the Scarecrow in Return to Oz EDIT: Died Jul 24, 2021 (aged 102) and now updated on IMDb 7) Betty Brodel (IMDb) actress – living, Brodel is the sister of Hollywood legend Joan Leslie (1925–2015), she goes by her married surname Franzalia and turned 100 in 2020 as per her local news, which means IMDb need to change her birth year! 8) Orlando Drummond (IMDb) actor – Brazilian, I posted a pic of him receiving the COVID vaccine not too long ago UPDATE: Died Jul 27, 2021 (aged 101) and now updated on IMDb 9) Walter Randall (IMDb) actor – South African-born Doctor Who actor, died in 2008. Certainly not the first time IMDb have neglected to pick up the death of a DW actor. According to Wiki he was born as "Walter Frank Fugard" and died in London. Only problem is I can't find him in the GRO for evidence. Why? Did he change his name? @msc, know anything about this one? UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 10) Guido Gorgatti (IMDb) actor – Italian-born, moved to Argentina aged 10, seems to be in pretty good shape for a smoker! 1920: 1) Tsunagorô Rashômon (IMDb) actor – possibly born 1919 but sources vary, also a professional wrestler and at 6"8 he was a giant. Someone on Twitter wished him a happy 101st in December but that doesn't mean anything. Japanese Wiki lists him as deceased without a date. Can't find much more. 2) John Bartha (IMDb) actor – Hungarian-born Italian, appeared in a lot of Spaghetti westerns, a huge list of credits to his name with the last being 1981. Someone on Wiki edited his page a while back to say he died in March 1991 under the name John Bertha, possibly in the States, but who knows? 3) Holly Harris (IMDb) actress – appeared in Perry Mason, died Jul 23, 2010 (aged 89) as per Ancestry family trees. Trees even list her as an actress and full date/place of birth matches info on IMDb. UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 4) Don Kennedy (IMDb) actor – also known Derrick Slaugenhaupt (yeah no wonder he changed it) and still living in Pennsylvania in 2020 according to residency records! Often confused with another actor called Don Kennedy (b. 1930) who is also still living. Their info on IMDb is all muddled together to add to the confusion. 5) Anita Ellis (IMDb) singer and actress – died Oct 28, 2018 (aged 95) after a long battle with dementia. It's sourced on her Wiki page so not sure why IMDb haven't picked it up! UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 6) Hilda Bernard (IMDb) actress – Argentine, acting until a few years ago, alive and well it would seem 7) Dominique Marcas (IMDb) actress – French, acting until a few years ago, alive and well it would seem 8) Beryl Evans (IMDb) actress – well sort of an actress, she had ONE role in a 2012 film which featured tons of old British actors called Run For Your Wife, and she was the widow of Frank Thornton from Are You Being Served! Full name Beryl Jane Margaret Evans (later Thornton) – died in Jul 15, 2015 (aged 95) in Richmond, London according to the GRO Index. Actual DOB = Dec 16, 1919 9) Arnold Yarrow (IMDb) actor – the oldest known actor to have appeared in Doctor Who following the death of Earl Cameron. Alive but in failing health. 10) Benjamin Ferencz (IMDb) lawyer – Hungarian-born American, the last living prosecutor from the Nuremberg trials. Alive. 1921: 1) Prince Philip (IMDb) royal – well having been the spouse of the British monarch for over 70 years it's little wonder he's amounted a few television credits! Alive and (kinda) well but let's not start that debate again! UPDATE: now dead and changed on IMDb accordingly 2) Bill Butler (IMDb) cinematographer – Oscar nominated, alive and extended a filmed interview as recently as September. 100 next month! 3) Geoffrey Chater (IMDb) actor and poet – Has appeared in loads of things across TV and film including Brideshead Revisited, Gandhi and Barry Lyndon. Alive, still giving poetry readings in 2017. 4) Jack Rader (IMDb) actor – huge list of credits, including The Blob and the Star Wars Holiday Special. See the previous page on this thread for some pondering of him. His IMDb birth deets don't show up in the records. Possible that they just have his DOB wrong, off by a decade maybe? Still, no concrete evidence he's alive but his last credited role was "as recent" as 2004. UPDATE: From Alliance, Nebraska as per articles copied onto page 14, and the son of bodybuilder Peary Rader. This says Jack was born in 1939. The records suggest Jack Lewis Rader was born in 1937. Still alive, based in California. 5) Walter Mirisch (IMDb) producer – Oscar nominated for the brilliant In the Heat of the Night. Alive. 6) Iris Apfel (IMDb) businesswoman and fashion icon – living and likely to outlive most of the other names listed here! 7) Wally Campo (IMDb) actor – appeared in The Little Shop of Horrors, last credited role was in 2011 so I assume living! If nothing appears in the next couple of years I'll revise this. 8) Phil Harvey (IMDb) actor – appeared in loads up until 1961 then just disappeared(?) But he didn't! Died in California on Jan 5, 2021 (aged 99). Obituary here. UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 9) Elizabeth Kelly (IMDb) actress – British, best known for her long-running appearance as Auntie Nellie in EastEnders from 1993 to 2000. Last credit was in 2019, still alive according to the autograph hunters! 10) Beulah Garrick (IMDb) actress – British, credits include Dog Day Afternoon. Last credit was in 1981 so she stopped acting at retirement age. Married to American actor Bernard Pollock (1920–2016). His obituary notes that she survived him, so most likely alive and living in NYC. 11) Wesley Gale (IMDb) actor –African-American star who appeared in Dolemite, Disco Godfather and Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song. Born Jun 10, 1922 (not 1921) in New York City as Wesley Aubrey Gale according to records. Better known as West Gale during the 80s and 90s when he was a renowned artist/collector/curator. 1992 article says he was 70 so DOB on IMDb likely accurate. Nothing in the records since the early 2000s so could be living, could be dead. 12) Tom Felleghy (IMDb) actor – Another Hungarian-born Italian actor who appeared in Spaghetti westerns (like John Bartha above – in fact both of them fled Hungary together during the Soviet takeover). No trace. Last acting role was in 1994, IMDb lists a producer credit in 2006 but is this definitely the same person? Hmmm... well could be alive I guess 13) Silvana Corsini (IMDb) actress – Italian, only a few credits in the 60s but reasonably notable ones. Last one in 1965. Who knows. UPDATE: Year of birth changed to 1941 on IMDb, so more likely to be alive now. 14) John F. Meyers (IMDb) producer – American, born in Detroit, Michigan; died Mar 29, 1988 (aged 66) according to the official records. Another oversight by IMDb. 15) Patricia Wright (IMDb) actress – American, appeared in Three Stooges shorts amongst other things, still alive and signing autographs as recently as late 2020. 1922: 1) Betty White (IMDb) actress – American. Alive, as we're reminded almost daily due to the fact she's fangirled and fawned over by millions. 2) Janis Paige (IMDb) actress – Golden Age Hollywood star. Appearing in a 2021 documentary so must be doing alright. 3) Norman Lear (IMDb) writer and producer – Creator of All in the Family, Sanford and Son, amongst many other things. Has looked withered for years, but as Prince Philip proves, its not the aesthetics that count! 4) Dilip Kumar (IMDb) actor – the "last" of Bollywood's Golden Age stars. Currently giving Zsa Zsa Gabor a run for her money as the world's biggest coffin tease. UPDATE: Died 7 Jul 2021 (aged 98) and now updated on IMDb 5) Bill Fletcher (IMDb) actor – tricky one indeed. Not helped by the fact that IMDb doesn't list a full DOB, so he can't be tracked in records. Appeared in loads of U.S. TV series between 1951 and 1983. 6) Micheline Presle (IMDb) actress – French, part of both Hollywod's Golden era and classic French cinema. Last acting credit was in 2014. 7) Bert I. Gordon (IMDb) director and screenwriter – Filmmaker behind a lot of classic science fiction/horror b-movies such as Empire of the Ants and Earth vs. The Spider. Last directorial credit was in 2015. 8) Eunice Anderson (IMDb) actress – American. Known for portraying old ladies, notably in the film A League of their Own way back in the 90s(!) Last acting credit was in 2013. 9) Joan Copeland (IMDb) actress – American, also the sister of the late playwright Arthur Miller. Last credit was in 2016 but according to IMDb, she's due to appear in two upcoming documentaries? 10) Cate Bauer (IMDb) actress – This one is complicated! IMDb says she was born in 1922 in London, she was actually born in 1929 in New York City, though her mother was English. Her only notable non-stage role was as the voice of Perdita in Disney's One Hundred and One Dalmatians. Played in the DDP for years now, including by two theme teams this year! UPDATE: Now updated on IMDb to say born 1929, and still living in Washington as per the records. 11) Chandrashekhar (IMDb) actor – Another Bollywood name. Last credit was in 2004. If you Google image search "Chandrashekhar actor" there are pictures of him from 2017 where he looks like a resurrected corpse. Surely can't be around for much longer. UPDATE: Died in June 2021 and updated on IMDb to reflect. 12) Margia Dean (IMDb) actress and beauty queen – Golden Age name who appeared in films from 1944 to 1964. Still signing autographs in 2021. 13) Jacqueline White (IMDb) actress – Golden Age name who appeared in films from 1942 to 1952. Made a TCM screening appearance in 2013 and still signing autographs in 2021. 14) Ray Anthony (IMDb) bandleader, trumpeter, actor – last surviving member of the Glenn Miller Orchestra, one of the last living chart toppers of the UK Singles Chart during the 1950s. Here's a clip of him playing the trumpet on his 95th birthday in 2017, what a champ! 15) Alan Scott (IMDb) actor – American. Another prolific face, last credited role was in 1977. Died on Feb 5, 2021 (aged 98). Obituary here – quite a fascinating life. UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 16) Bridget Sellers (IMDb) wardrobe supervisor – English, born as Bridget Kent in Kingston (then part of Surrey) and married Ernest Sellers (he died in 1984). Notable credits include Dr. Strangelove and the Pink Panther films. Last one was in 1985. Now, there's a Bridget Sellers who was born in 1922 and died in Surrey on Nov 2, 2013 (aged 91). Is this her? Probably, but because BFI, IMDb etc. don't have a full DOB for her it's not possible to know for sure. Someone would have to order the death certificate and look at the widow information on it to get a concrete answer. 17) Walter Kelley (IMDb) actor – American. Credits in film and television with an appearance in a 1993 episode of Murder, She Wrote being his last. Died on Nov 29, 2015 (aged 93) in California. Death notice here. UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 18) Zygmunt Sulistrowski (IMDb) director, producer and writer – Polish Hollywood filmmaker. Last credit was in 1981. Moved to Brazil in 1988. This tends to suggest he was still around in 2006. EDIT: Scratch that. Died in 2007 according to this site on Polish Brazilians. UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 19) Shirley Johns (IMDb) actress – American. Just a few film credits during the 1940s. IMDb have her DOB wrong – it's 3 March 1931, not 3 March 1922 (born as Shirley Imogene Joan Johnson). There's a record for a Shirley J. Johnson living in Santa Ysabel, San Diego County in 2021. Possibly her but not concrete. 20) Jane Holland (IMDb) actress – Australian, only three credits with two of them being tv movies. Born as Joan Southall in Sydney. Married to legendary Aussie actor Leo McKern, who died in 2002 in Bath, Somerset. She died in England on Jan 27, 2021 (aged 98) so yet another recent death. Her death notice here. UPDATE: IMDb have now updated the page after contacting them. 21) Audrey Strauss (IMDb) actress – Canadian. Better known as the first wife of the late American actor Robert Strauss until their divorce in 1960. Just one acting credit, in Stalag 17, in 1953 alongside her husband. Born as Audrey Bratty in Toronto. Can't trace her sadly. 22) Don Williams (IMDb) singer – last surviving member of The Williams Brothers quartette (of which Andy Williams was the most famous member). Several TV and film credits as part of the quartette. Facebook picture of him here in 2017 (note – using a wheelchair) with Jimmy Osmond at the Andy Williams Boulevard dedication. 1923: 1) Glynis Johns (IMDb) actress – British, best known for playing the mum in Mary Poppins. Oldest living nominee for an Oscar in an acting category and oldest living Batman villain. Currently in a retirement home. 2) Larry Storch (IMDb) actor – American. Usually gets wheeled out annually but didn't this year for his 98th in January. Still signing autographs though. Hmmm... 3) Bob Barker (IMDb) game show host – American. Presented The Price is Right from 1972 to 2007. Numerous health issues in the past but quiet as of recent. 4) Gloria Henry (IMDb) actress – American film and television star. Last credit was in 2012 but still signing autographs as of December 2020. UPDATE: now dead and changed on IMDb accordingly 5) Jimmy Lydon (IMDb) actor and producer – American. Last appearance was in a documentary in 2004. His son has stated that he's now unable to sign fanmail – that gives us a clear indication of his current state. 6) Mike Nussbaum (IMDb) actor – American, probably most notable for his role in Men in Black. Credits in 2019, 2020 and just completed a new role! 7) Val Bettin (IMDb) actor – American, best known for his voice work where he usually impersonates an English accent. Wouldn't hiring an English voice actor be easier and less crass? Wife died in 2007, still signing autographs in 2017, can't find much since then. 8) Ray Boyle (IMDb) actor and production designer – American. IMDb says born 1923 and Wikipedia says 1925. Both are wrong. The official records show he was born in 1924. Last credit was in 1995. Married to actress Jan Shepard (wiki) who is 93. 9) Vincent Ball (IMDb) actor – Australian. Prolific in both film and television. Last role was in 2015, honoured by the Aussie Government in 2016. 10) Phil Arthur (IMDb) actor – American with roles on television, notably Perry Mason. Also went by the stage name of Philip Guibord as per newspaper clippings on page 15. Real DOB was Nov 30, 1916 (not Nov 30, 1923) and he died on Nov 14, 2004 (aged 87) as per records. Also a FindAGrave page here. 11) Donald Elson (IMDb) actor – American, notable for his roles in TV shows like Gunsmoke and Bonanza, as well as films like Gremlins. Last credit was in 2010. 12) Marilyn Cooper (IMDb) actress – American, with just one credit (in 1949) but better known as the widow of Indian actor Sabu (1924–1963). Appeared in a 1993 but nothing of her since then. According to the official records born 1924 or 1925 in Charleston, West Virginia. Not to be confused with the stage actress of the same name (1934–2009). 13) Paul Muller (IMDb) actor – Swiss, though appeared mainly in Italian films. Last credit was in 2015. 14) Henry Kissinger (IMDb) politician – American who needs no introduction. Sec of State (1973–1977) who controversially won a Nobel Peace Prize. Wheelchair bound but still cropping up with random appearances every so often. 15) Ruth Geller (IMDb) actress – German whose career only really took off in the last decade playing old ladies. Last credit was in 2020. 16) Marguerite Belafonte (IMDb) actress – American, born as Frances Marguerite Byrd. One acting role in a 1959 film. Better known as the first wife of singer Harry Belafonte. Since I drew up this list, IMDb have added a death date of Feb 15, 1998 (aged 74), which is backed up by a match in the Social Security Index 17) Tommy Dix (IMDb) actor and singer – American, appeared in a just a few film roles during the 1940s, though they were larger "title credits". Retired from showbiz in the 50s! Did a tell all type interview in 2008 and signing autographs still in 2010 but quiet since... not to be confused with the British boxer of the same name (b. 1939). Picked in the 2014 DDP... unless they meant to pick the boxer? 18) Ben Stern (IMDb) sound engineer – American, father of radio giant Howard Stern (b. 1954). Last appeared with his son in 2011. In 2018 Howard Stern stated his father was "ailing". 19) Edward Ryan (IMDb) actor – American who appeared in mainly film roles from the 1930s through the 50s. IMDb says he was born on May 25, 1923. The official records say May 26, 1924 as Edward J Ryan in Brooklyn (his WWII draft card even lists him as an actor aged 18!). As per the Social Security Index he died Dec 13, 1998 (aged 75). Confirmation of his death means that Kathryn Trosper was definitely the last surviving cast member of Citizen Kane when she died in 2016. 20) Andy Brennan (IMDb) producer – American who worked on a few Western films, appropriate given that he was the son of acting legend Walter Brennan (1894–1974). Died on Apr 24, 2017 (aged 93) as per the records. FindAGrave page here with a grave photo. 21) Ralph Senensky (IMDb) director – American, best known for his credits in television including Star Trek, Mission: Impossible and The Twilight Zone. Last directed in 2013, appeared in a documentary in 2016. 22) Carolle Drake (IMDb) actress and model – American, just one credit (a 1957 film), the second wife of singer Billy Eckstine (1914–1993). In 2014 her son noted in an interview that she was alive and resident in Los Angeles. Died in Aug 2015 (in LA) according to Ancestry family trees. 23) Jo-Carroll Dennison (IMDb) actress and model – American, Miss America in 1942(!). Quite a few film and television roles. Last interviewed in 2020, seems to be in pretty good shape for her age. 24) Maria Martin (IMDb) actress – Spanish. Roles in film and television, last credit was in 2000. Nothing since then but I would be very surprised if she died off radar. 25) Bob Dole (IMDb) politician – American, ran for President against Clinton in the 1990s. Recently diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. 26) Billy Watson (IMDb) actor – American, one of three surviving silent film actors and a member of the famous Watson acting family.

IMDb says born as Robert L. Harris in Long Beach, California on Nov 18, 1923. The official records say Robert Lee Harris was born on Nov 8, 1923 in Long Beach, California. As per Ancestry family trees he died on Feb 22, 2019 (aged 95) in California. Unbelievable that a career like that doesn't get an obit! 1924: 1) Eva Maria Saint (IMDb) actress – American Golden era actress, last role was in 2019. Seems to be in pretty good shape so wouldn't be surprised if she lived a few more years. 2) Leslie Phillips (IMDb) actor – British. Best known for his roles in the Carry On and Harry Potter films. Wheelchair bound and frail. 3) Mark Miller (IMDb) actor and screenwriter – American. Stopped both acting and writing in the 90s but still active through the 2010s.

Interviewed about her time on the show quite recently, although she sent a letter to a fan in March 2021 saying she hadn't been well. 8) Johnny Gilbert (IMDb) announcer – best known as the announcer on Jeopardy!, which he's been doing continuously since 1984(!). NY Times recently published an article where they said he was born in 1928, which the records seem to support somewhat. So maybe he's younger than previously thought? 9) Jan Harrison (IMDb) actress – American, really only appeared in television roles, notably Gunsmoke. Last role was in 1964 then she became a school teacher. According to IMDb, born 20 Dec 1924 as Janet R. Harrison in Peterson's Landing, Washington. One small problem... no such a place exists. Records show she was actually born as Janet Ruth Harrison on 29 Dec 1924 in Portland, Oregon. Married Carl Bergquist (which matches IMDb). Died in Los Angeles, California in November 2014 aged 89. 10) Noreen Nash (IMDb) actress – American. Appeared in the Golden era of Hollywood cinema, also the widow of actor James Whitmore. Appeared in a documentary in 2012 and still returning fan mail signed in 2021. Her mum lived to 99 – it's all in the genes! 11) Ted Hartley (IMDb) actor and producer – American, his career was primarily in film. Also the widower of actress Dina Merrill. Hartley is such a strange case. His Wiki says born 1934 (but I note it has been changed many times). The records can't seem to agree either. His recent residency records all say born 1934, but all his military records say born in 1924, including his WWII draft card. So he was wither 15 or 25 when he served. Did he lie about his age to go to war? Still returning fan mail signed in 2021. 12) Bob Herron (IMDb) actor and stuntman – American with an exhausting list of credits to his name. Last role in 2011. Known amongst Trekkies as one of the oldest living actors from the Original Series. Still signing autographs in 2020. EDIT: Died on October 10, 2021 (aged 97) and now updated on IMDb. 13) Jimmy Carter (IMDb) politician – U.S. President. Not looking too hot as of recent but will likely see 2022. 14) Barbara Collentine (IMDb) actress – American. Mainly appeared in television. Widow of actor Richard Bull. Last credit was in 2000. In 2019, her family returned photos to an autograph hunter saying that she couldn't sign anything. Make of that what you will... 15) Raymond Guth (IMDb) actor – American with a strange mix of credits in westerns, television and video games. Last credit 2010. IMDb have his DOB slightly off, he was born 31 Jul 1925, not 26 May 1924... and his middle name is Joseph, not John. Still alive and living in Pennsylvania though. 16) Maria Riva (IMDb) actress – American, daughter of actress Marlene Dietrich! Last credit 2018. Also an author. Last publications 2017. Appeared in a documentary during the silent era as a baby so you could argue she's one of its last survivors. 17) Sandhya (IMDb) actress – Indian star of Telugu/Tamil cinema. Died in 1971 as per her full bio on IMDb so god knows why they haven't added it to her main stats section. 18) Wayne Mallory (IMDb) actor and special effects artist – American, long list of credits in film and television. Since I drew up this list, IMDb have added a death date of Oct 11, 2020 (aged 95), as reported by the Boot Hill western blog. 19) Anne Vernon (IMDb) actress – French. Retired in 1972 but appeared in a 2018 documentary. Still signing fan mail as of 2020. 20) Bobby Cox (IMDb) actor – American. An obscure name of 1930s cinema. Born as Bobbie Joe Cox in Ranger, Texas on 17 Nov 1924. Died 10 Jul 1969 (aged 44). FindAGrave page here. 21) Meta Velandor (IMDb) actress – Swedish. Still working, last credit was in 2020. 22) Robert M. Young (IMDb) director and cinematograph – American. Last credit was in 2011, though he appeared at an awards ceremony in 2016. 23) Margaret Banks (IMDb) choreographer – Canadian with credits during the 50s and 60s, including on West Side Story and The Andy Williams Show. A tribute was held for her in 2019 according to this Facebook page which made me suspect she had died. She married actor-dancer Tommy Wonder (died 1993) and set up a ballet society in Nevada, which leads me to her death record on Ancestry: Margaret May Banks/Wonder b. 30 Aug 1924 in Vancouver, Canada, d. 28 Jun 2005 (aged 80) in Reno, Nevada. 24) Rolf Schimpf (IMDb) actor – German. A prolific name in television. Retired in 2009. Still signing fan mail in 2020. 25) M. Rajan (IMDb) actor – Indian actor in Tamil cinema. Last credit was in 1987. Who knows... 26) Gloria Stroock (IMDb) actress – American. Widow of screenwriter Leonard B. Stern (died 2011) and sister of actress Geraldine Brooks (died 1977). Last role was in 1996 but appeared in a 2007 documentary about Marlon Brando. 27) Woody Woodbury (IMDb) comedian – American. The last stand-up from this generation. Made an appearance in 2019 and still signing autographs in 2020. 28) Felippa Rock (IMDb) actress – American, appeared in some movies in the 40s and 50s. Later became a casting director. Widow of Australian actor Michael Pate. He died in Australia in 2008, so presumably she was latterly living there? His obituary notes that she survived him, but given that it's Australia I can't search the records, could've died off radar, though given they're an acting family unlikely to go unreported. Still, no evidence of being alive since '08. 29) Laura Mason (IMDb) actress – American. Appeared in mainly TV roles, the last being in 1969. A Hitchcock actress so you wouldn't expect her death to go unnoticed but alas, died on Dec 30, 2011 (aged 87). Born as Lillian Romer on 10 Aug 1924 in Santa Cruz, NOT as Jeanne Lynne Romer. Jeanne Lisa Romer was her twin, who was also an actress, known as Jean Romer (and her IMDb also needs updated – she died on Dec 13, 2012). UPDATE: Both Mason and her sister have had death dates added on IMDb, but they've rejected some of the other info strangely. 30) Ip Chun (IMDb) stuntman – Chinese martial artist, based in Hong Kong. His father was the teacher of Bruce Lee. Last credit was in 2016 but still signing autographs in 2020. 31) Betty Bonaduce (IMDb) screenwriter – American. Active during the 70s but appeared in a 2006 documentary. Her son is actor and comedian Danny Bonaduce (child actor in The Partridge Family). She features in some of his social media posts like this picture from 2019.

Honoured by the city of Miami, Florida in 2010. 33) Jean Veloz (IMDb) dancer and actress – American. Last credit was in 1984 but appeared as a dance instructor in The Bachelorette in 2016.

Died in Rome in August 1982 (aged 58) according to various film sites online. 37) Leza Holland (IMDb) screenwriter, director and producer – American. First wife of actor Richard Erdman (died 2019). Last credit in 2011. Since I drew up this list, IMDb have added a death year of 2014 (aged 89/90). They give her a DOB of 5 Feb 1924 in Kansas City, Missouri. The records say she was actually born 5 May 1923 in Kansas City and died on 1 Sep 2014 (aged 91) in San Francisco. 38) Harold Livingston (IMDb) screenwriter and novelist – American, best known for screenwriting Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979).

Last credit was in 2004. Spanish Wiki gives a death date of 12 Apr 2006 (aged 81). I don't doubt it. Just seems he died off radar in relative obscurity like many other Spaghetti western supporting actors. 1925: 1) Arlene Dahl (IMDb) actress – One of the few big names from the Hollywood Golden era still alive. Hasn't acted since 1999 but still making appearances as recently as 2018 and returning fan mail as of April 2021. 2) Angela Lansbury (IMDb) actress – British-American Golden era actress, but will always be best known for Murder She Wrote and Beauty and the Beast.

The records say both 1925 and 1926, and there are other years flying about elsewhere online. 1925 is probably the best bet given that's what is recorded in the official birth index for New York. Still doing voice work in 2020, still appearing in documentaries more recently, and returning fan mail as of April 2021. 5) June Lockhart (IMDb) actress – Golden-era star. Still doing voice work in 2019. Still signing fan mail as of March 2021. 6) Peggy Webber (IMDb) actress – American. Last credit was 2005 but appeared in a 2014 documentary.

Last role was in 1983. Appears to be alive as somebody in the autograph community suggested a 2018 address for her (now living as Patricia Unertl) in Wisconsin. Birth Index gives a DOB of Sep 4, 1924 in Los Angeles, California as Patricia J. Conzelman. The Patricia Unertl in Wisconsin exists according to the records. Problem is she's 89, not 96 so doesn't match. Who knows. 13) Perry Blackwell (IMDb) actress and singer – Early African-American supporting actress best known for her role in Pillow Talk.

Last role was in 1973 but she appeared in a 1994 documentary. Since I originally compiled this list, IMDb have changed her year of birth to 1921, and I believe they were correct to do so. The records on Ancestry suggest she'll become a centenarian in July.

It was later amended to say that she predeceased him. They lived in Majorca together, so to get a definite answer someone will likely have to get in touch with the registry there. 27) Barbara Bushman (IMDb) wife – I wouldn't even describe her as an actress because she had one uncredited role in a 1932 film. Married to actor Harry Morgan until his death in 2011. Still living in Los Angeles, California as Barbara B.

Emigrated to North America in late 1950s in search of a better career, then forged one... only to be typecast in stereotypical "Englishman" roles forever (serves him right).

Mainly appeared on television, and frequently in western-themed shows. I don't believe the 19 Oct 1926 DOB on IMDb is correct because I can't locate a matching record. Google seems to think this actor was born in 1915 and died in 1965, but that's a mixup with a journalist who was called Robert Ruark (1915–1965). There is a Robert Bruce Roark who is 94 and living in Lake Worth, Florida. Could be him I guess. Los Angeles/Hollywood newspaper clippings state he was "from the East", a "medical student from Chicago", and a member of the 11th Airborne Division in WWII. Is Robert Roark a stage name? 65) Louis Massad (IMDb) actor – American. Roles between 1959 and 1973 (mainly in television).

Lives in Gulf Breeze, Florida as of 2021 as Bambi Linn DeJesus. 68) Sergio Garrone (IMDb) director and screenwriter – Italian. Since I originally drew up this list, IMDb have amended his year of birth to 1925, which is in line with other sources. Last credit was in 1984 but appeared in a 2019 documentary. 69) Bobbie Wygant (IMDb) presenter – American. Legendary entertainment reporter and host, who was still working in 2019 as she celebrated 70 years in the business. 70) George Pappas (IMDb) producer – American. Credits from 1973 to 2018, which include the Burt Reynolds film Heat. Living in Pomona, California as of 2021, but IMDb have his DOB wrong.

msc 18,477 Posted November 10, 2021 I can put a face to James Telfer below with a big of rummaging through these names. He's Kenneth, the shop owner who commits hit and run in Hostile Witness, the Taggart with Robert Carlyle in an early role. Donalda Samuel is in a few memorable episodes but I think she plays very small roles. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,745 Posted November 13, 2021 Does anyone know if Anthony Stamboulieh (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0821810/) is still alive? Appeared in a couple of MacGyver episodes, last iMDB credit seems to be from 2001. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EGN 121 Posted November 13, 2021 Stamboulieh was last publicly active on his (seemingly genuine - it’s friends with his wife) Facebook account on 23 Jul 21, so if he has carked then it’s recent. He also seems to be active as a director (again, with his wife) of a Drama school in Canada, which is rather unambiguously called ’dramaschool’, although the website is painfully 90’s, and a reference to ‘our summer workshop’ is a video from 2018, so I wonder if it’s inactive. In summary - he’s probably alive and well in Vernon, Canada. There is a ‘contact us’ page on the dramaschool website if you want to reach out for confirmation. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looked healthy on her 100th, and still speaking at local church services in East Sussex then. Question is, is Randall still with us? She latterly went by the name of Terry Collier, and doesn't appear in the GRO Index up to 2019.
